A New England institution that's expanded along the Atlantic Coast. One of its claim to fame: Its New England clam chowder has been served at every U.S. presidential election since 1981.

Delicious chowders (clam and fish ), possibly the longest wine list in Boston, quick and friendly service , a massive seafood menu with lots of daily specials , and a 'special but informal' atmosphere

Иван Ватутин

Great place! Huge plates full of delicious sea food ! Quick service ! Lovely and highly recommended!

Sifis Symianakis

Delicious and unique dishes in logical prices! It has also a big variety of wines !!

Barbara Bilodeau

I pretty much always order the Cajun grilled shrimp with seaweed salad , and jasmine rice with shandong sauce. So good!

Søren Thinggaard Hansen

Many good things on the meny, but the last couple of times here, seems like they want you through the system as fast as possible. It loses a bit of its charm if you are still at starter when main arr.

Leigh Anne Zinsmeister

The food is fantastic and the service is top notch. Ask about the specials, and definitely get the clam chowder .

Matt McDaniel

Crab cake was delicious, as was the broth-based chowder , which is GF.

You cannot go wrong at this place. Staff was very helpful in making tasty recommendations.

If they're still serving it, GET THE SOFT-SHELL CRAB . It is, without a doubt, the best I've ever had. Crispy thin tempura excellently done.

Pamela Sittig

I was very excited to find out they had a gluten free menu ! Also they were very accommodating to my needs and food specifications.

Stephanie Arnold

The baked stuffed lobster literally made me feel... stuffed!

David B

Clam chowder outstanding, grilled scallops excellent.

Anthony Hand

Love the fish chowder , New England style. One of the few places who do it.

Sara Sylvester

The lobster bake is a wayyyyy better deal than ordering items separately if you want more than just a lobster

💫Coco

They claim you aren't allowed to substitute sides, even though all other Legal locations allow you to substitute sides.

Franck Tebou

The wood grilled assortments is a great light dish, highly recommend it!

Clam chowder , oysters and lobster all great.

I went in there after couple of advices. Fishes are decent however the beer platter was a disaster. Just stick with fresh fishes .

Raphael Armand Mifano

Lobster soup ! Amazing

Kelcie Hayes

Get the double stuffed shrimp - stuffed with crab.....best meal of my life!!

Sarah Lowney

Food is amazing, scallops , shrimp , scrod....even the steak is great! Unfortunately the service was terrible - it fell way short of what I expect in the US. Try Legal, but go to another branch.

Pablo Salvatella

clam chowder excellent choice, kenny the waiter was really cool

Get the Thai Calamari ! It's evolved over the years and I think better than ever now.

There has to be better seafood places in Boston than here. Long John Silvers maybe?
